This title means "the mirage". It is a map of islands with mountains inthe center, meaning the coasts are where the high density buildingswill be. The water is wide enough for seaports and ferry routes, sokeep this in mind when you are designing you cities. Have fun with it. -
I really need to defend Los Angeles here. Sure there's a ton of traffic, but the city grid stays pretty consistent and it's pretty hard to get lost in the city. In time it will get a great rail system, and then it will no longer be in this thread.

The Capital of the World!

The US's most pathetic highways
phattonez replied to Duke87's topic in Architecture & Urban Planning
That's what great about LA Freeways. When most of them were built, eminent domain was something that was easy to use, and it was used a lot. The engineers here are some of the best in the world. -
The US's most pathetic highways
phattonez replied to Duke87's topic in Architecture & Urban Planning
California again, although most of the highways are great. CA110, the Pasadena freeway. It was made a long time ago and it was made for traffic that went 40 miles an hour. Getting off the freeway is dangerous and getting on is even worse. You have to come to a complete stop, and wait for a hole in the traffic to jump onto the freeway. The link below shows portions of the freeway. http://www.scvresources.com/highways/sr_110.htm -
Real Highway (RHW) - Development and Support
phattonez replied to qurlix's topic in NAM & Transit Networks
I've searched this thread, but I haven't found anything about on/off ramps. I know that they are being worked on, but how can put them now without an intersection and without using a freeway? -
I haven't seen it requested anywhere, but has anyone tried to make banked curves on highways. This is a very important part of a highway system that was completely ignored by Maxis/EA.

2 questions, first, on the settings, what is the difference between user's plug-ins and application plugins? Second, how do I change the file locations? It is looking on the C drive and most everything I have is on my F drive.
-
That's strange. When I downloaded the program it didn't have an installer. I'm starting to think that is causing my problem.
-
It sounds like it might be easier to reinstall it. I don't have enough space on my C drive to move everything around.
-
Thanks for that. But I still can't change the directory when I go to File --> Settings. It won't let me edit anything.

Disaster Strikes! (And Not the Fun Kind)
phattonez replied to jabezscratch's topic in SimCity 4 General Discussion
Try a hard disk case. You can salvage some of the information. -
For the first one, I can't really post a guide. You just have to work the slope where the transition goes until it gets as good as you want it to be. As for the tunnel, it'll take some time for me to post it.
-
I can post a guide that shows how to do it step by step later on tonight (west coast time). Do you want to know the tunnel method or my other method ?

Official Mapping Community Requests
phattonez replied to RadioheadFan's topic in Mapping Community Room
Send it to me and I can do it. -
Industry is probably across that bridge there. EDIT: Big cities like that take time. You need a large population and everything needs to be perfect. You could also cheat (super demand mod), but that doesn't get rid of caps (at least I don't think it does).
-
PNGs take forever to load, can you change those to jpegs or gifs? Cool pics, btw.
-
This is what I was able to do. I used a tunnel, and I also used the original technique (which I could not make perfect).
-
Instead of using that NAM puzzle piece, couldn't you use a ground to elevated highway transition in order to avoid going to avenue?
-
Check desirability and make sure that you are placing these homes in a location where these people will live. From my experience, it's not on the outskirts of a city.

This is an airport that I'm working on in one of my regions (I think that it is Lugar De Reunion). I'm not done with it, but this is what it looks like so far. An overview Maximum image size is 800 x 600 - MM From terminal 1 From terminal 2 From terminal 3
-
I downloaded some airport packs, and I didn't see any dependancies, but I am missing a building, a large airport hangar. Where can I find it?
